The Flatmates
Part of the mid-1980s British indie pop boom, The Flatmates were part of the Subway Organization, a Bristol record label formed by Martin Whitehead, who was also guitarist and main songwriter for the band. Following the band's formation in 1985, singles such as I Could be in Heaven, Happy All the Time and Shimmer established the band as potentially one of the most successful indie bands of the time, but the Flatmates disbanded in early 1989 before releasing a proper studio album.

The band began their pop career in 2004 by compiling a tribute album for iconic Manchester band “The Fall“, which featured eclectic European and transatlantic contributions highly appreciated by John Peel.
